DRM issues ~10 exclusive categories of debug messages; to represent this directly in dyndbg, add a new 6-bit field: struct _ddebug.class_id. This gives us 64 classes, which should be more than enough. #> echo 0x012345678 > /sys/module/drm/parameters/debug All existing callsites are initialized with _DPRINTK_CLASS_DFLT, which is 2^6-1. This reserves 0-62 for use in new categorized/class'd pr_debugs, which fits perfectly with natural enums (ints: 0..N). Thats done by extending the init macro: DEFINE_DYNAMIC_DEBUG_METADATA() with _CLS(cls, ...) suffix, and redefing old name using extended name. Then extend the factory macro callchain with _cls() versions to provide the callsite.class_id, with old-names passing _DPRINTK_CLASS_DFLT. This sets us up to create class'd prdebug callsites (class'd callsites are those with .class_id != _DPRINTK_CLASS_DFLT). No behavior change. cc: Rasmus Villemoes <rasmus.villemoes@prevas.dk> Signed-off-by: Jim Cromie <jim.cromie@gmail.com> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20220904214134.408619-13-jim.cromie@gmail.com Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
